  • a fuel pressure regulator to maintain the fuel at a pressure appropriate for delivery to the engine.
  • the design of the fuel pressure regulator must be suitable for its particular application, and often a new fuel pressure regulator design must be developed for a new fuel injection system application.
  • This invention provides a fuel pressure regulator adapted for a multiplicity of fuel injection system applications.
  • the pressure regulator base is formed from a symetrical extrusion having three sides provided with projections that define five planar regions.
